This approach fosters patient-centered care, focusing on the individual’s overall well-being, supporting recovery, and promoting quality of life.

Community Health Nursing
Community health nursing focuses on promoting and protecting the health of populations in a community. Nurses in this field assess health needs, provide education, and implement preventive care initiatives. They work to reduce health disparities, improve access to care, and support community-based interventions to enhance overall public health.

COVID-19 Management

Nursing Leadership
Nursing leadership involves guiding, mentoring, and inspiring nursing teams to provide high-quality care. It encompasses decision-making, advocacy, and strategic planning to ensure efficient, patient-centered healthcare delivery. Nursing leaders foster a collaborative environment, support professional development, and drive improvements in patient outcomes and nursing practices.
